They must be doing something right: Carl’s Jr. plans rapid Ontario expansion
Presumably that would include more locations in the region.
Quote:America’s second-oldest burger franchise after White Castle opened its first Canadian location in Kelowna, B.C. in 2011 and is planning a rapid expansion across southern Ontario to carve into Canada’s massive $8 billion hamburger market, said Michael Woida, senior vice president, international, for Carl’s Jr. owner CKE Restaurants Inc. “Canada is one of our most important international expansions, and Ontario is really the lion’s share of the burger market,” he said. The company has plans to open 30 locations across the GTA and southern Ontario within six years, and upwards of 100 across the province over the next decade.
Presumably that would include more locations in the region.
